Hey.
I was just wondering if it's possible to get more than three programs in the
Quick Launch.
Thanks

1-Make sure taskbar is unlocked ( Right click taskbar > Untick Lock the taskbar)
2-Resize the Quick Launch toolbar by dragging the vertical-line ( | )


Good Luck, Ayush.

Click and drag a shortcut to the QL bar and release. If you right-click
and drag, when you release, you'll be given the option to move, or copy
the shortcut there.

You may already have more in there. Do you see a little >> at the
right side of the Quick Launch area? If so, click on that. You might
want to consider making your task bar higher than one line and moving
your Quick Launch bar to a separate line. I have mine set at 3 lines
high and use the "AutoHide Taskbar" function to keep it hidden until I
move the cursor to the bottom of the screen. I've posted a URL that
shows my current display with the taskbar unhidden, so you can see
what I mean, at this address:

When I was counting them to answer this question I had 16, but I
realized I didn't need one of them any more. I rotate things in and out
of there, depending on what programs I'm using a lot of at the time.

You can have as many as you want simply by dragging shortcuts there. What
you probably don't realize is that the size is the QL Bar is set to *show
you* only three of what's there and you have to click on the >> at its end
to see the others.

However, you can resize the QL Bar to show you more. Just make sure the task
bar is unlocked, then drag the bar at its end to make it bigger.

The problem with making the QL Bar bigger is that in it default position,
docked on the task bar, making it bigger means there's less room on the task
bar for other things. So you might want to consider dragging the QL Bar off
the task bar entirely and docking it on another side of the screen.

What's your clock in the system tray?

It's a program called TClock Lite. Here's a URL:
http://homepage1.nifty.com/kazubon/tclock/

In the TClock properties, under the clock / format section, this is
the text for my particular custom format:

dddd\nmmm" "d", "yyyy\n"——————"\nh:nn:ss tt

You can adjust your text colors and background colors to your own
preferences.

Ah, nice! I use another Tclock varient called TClocEx, available at
<http://www.rcis.co.za/dale/tclockex/>. It has a few more features than
yours - the one I like most is a little pop-up calendar.

TClockEx is different from TClock, and written by someone else. Although
some people prefer TClockEx, I always preferred TClock.

I think these were designed by the same person. If I double click my
'clock' it also pops up a calendar. :) I had TClockEx at one time—I
still have the exe file for it. I'm not sure why I went with the Lite
version, although from their website, it appears that Lite is actually
the newer version. I think I downloaded it when I got my new laptop
back in late 2004. It's doing what I'm used to, so I'm happy. It also
let me alter my Start button icon. :)
